[PC] Boy, the old PC really is a stinker!

[jon_chaisson]

Right now I'm trying to do the simple thing of connecting one of my externals to the old PC--that is, unplugging it from the new one and plugging it into the old one, a direct connection rather than through a network--so I can copy the rest of the stuff that's in the My Documents folder on the old PC before I run some sort of Evil Self-Destruct Program on it before I donate it.

At this point I've tried four times to plug it in, and it's blinking at me, mouth agape, with a look of "eh...wuh?" And this is when I open the My Documents folder, kids. This thing is SLOW. I think I may have injured it over the years...

I'm not too worried, I'm sure I can get it working...just that it's being stupid right now. Good thing I bought this new one when I did...!


EDIT: Hell with it. I'm burning the stuff onto CD. I have a bunch of empty CDs I haven't used for a few years so I figure I may as well use them for this.
